My Youth Began With Him - Chapter 108

Chapter 108

"No Auntie, we aren't fighting," Huo Mian said with her fingers crossed .

"Really? But why do I feel like something's not right?" Ning Zhiyuan's mother mumbled to herself .

"You tend to overthink things like this . See, I told you it was nothing .  Mian is a sensible kid; she would never fight with Zhiyuan . " Ning's father chuckled .

Huo Mian felt unsettled as she heard what he said .
 
After the meal, Huo Mian brought the couple to the First Hospital's outpatient resting area and then headed towards the Ophthalmology Clinic .

Ning Zhiyuan walked out of the surgery room looking slightly tired . He had just finished operating on a cataract patient .

"Zhiyuan . "

"What do you want?" Ning Zhiyuan appeared distant .

"Auntie and Uncle Ning are here . They couldn't reach you on your phone, so they called me . "

Ning Zhiyuan took out his phone and simply nodded in acknowledgment, "I had a surgery so my phone was off . Where are they?"

"I took them out for lunch and then brought them to the outpatient resting area . "

"Oh, how much did lunch cost you? I'll pay you back . "

"It's fine . They've always been very kind to me, so treating them to lunch is nothing . "

"Forget it . I can't take advantage of you since it's not like we're friends . Is five hundred enough?" Ning Zhiyuan took out his wallet and pulled out five 100 yuan bills . He then threw the money at Huo Mian .

"Thanks for taking care of my parents . But if there is nothing else, don't contact them in the future . My family has nothing to do with you anymore . I will tell them everything today . "

"Okay . " Huo Mian nodded .

"Zhiyuan, what is it?" Wu Xiaoxue walked over from not far away . She was wearing her white lab coat and glared at Huo Mian in an extremely unfriendly manner .

"Oh, my parents are here, and they couldn't reach me on my phone . "



"So, who is she?" Wu Xiaoxue looked at Huo Mian suspiciously .

"She's an old university classmate . " Ning Zhiyuan turned on his heels as soon as he finished . He grabbed Wu Xiaoxue by the hand and left .

Huo Mian held on to the five hundred yuan and let out a helpless smile .  

Lunch was around two hundred yuan, so it was generous of Ning Zhiyuan to give her five hundred . She might as well take it since it was given to her .  

At that thought, Huo Mian headed back to the OB/GYN department .

Right before the end of the day, the head nurse walked in, followed by a young woman .

Huo Mian was not unfamiliar with the woman as she was none other than the Hospital Director's niece – Wu Xiaoxue .

"Listen up everybody . This is our department's new chief . She will be seeing patients every Friday . Please cooperate with Dr . Wu . "

"Yes Ma'am," a few nurses responded immediately .



"Come here, Huang Yue . From now on, you will be Dr . Wu's assistant," the head nurse said .

However, Wu Xiaoxue smiled and said, "Head Nurse, I want Huo Mian to be my assistant . "

"You know Huo Mian, Dr . Wu?" the head nurse asked with surprise .

"Yes, I know her . " Wu Xiaoxue smiled, but the smile looked rather crooked .

Huo Mian was surprised as well; she didn't think Wu Xiaoxue would say that .

"Okay, if that's the case, Huo Mian, you can be Dr . Wu's assistant . Do a good job . " The head nurse patted Huo Mian on the shoulder .

"I will, Head Nurse . " Huo Mian nodded .

Once settled, Huo Mian looked at the clock and proceeded to the changing room . It was almost time to go home .

"Huo Mian . " Wu Xiaoxue chased after her as Huo Mian was heading out .

"Yes, Dr . Wu?"



"I have an academic seminar later and need to gather some reports . You need to stay behind to print them for me," Wu Xiaoxue said matter-of-factly .

Huo Mian thought about it for a moment . . .

"There are people in the office who are responsible for printing and photocopying, this is not within my job scope," Huo Mian said calmly .

"You are my assistant . Do as you are told, or else . . . I have the right to fire you, you know?" Wu Xiaoxue was still smiling, clearly very pleased with herself .  

"So you are giving me a hard time because of Ning Zhiyuan?" Huo Mian asked directly .

"I didn't think you were so quick-witted . I heard that you're Ning Zhiyuan's ex-girlfriend?"

"Wrong . I'm his ex-ex-girlfriend . His ex-girlfriend is He Man . Looks like your information isn't up to date . " Huo Mian smiled .

"Who does He Man think she is? She's nothing more than a toy . I heard you've been with Zhiyuan for several years, and you guys were planning to get married, correct?" Wu Xiaoxue asked provokingly .
